Lakai footwear was established by Mike Carroll and Rick Howard in 1999. They wanted to make shoes their team would be proud of and kept an atmosphere that was supportive and motivating and fun. While it was a risk, they felt like they owed it to skateboarding and skateboarders to take that risk. Mike and Rick introduced Lakai Limited Footwear with the same dedication and pride they have always invested into their skateboarding and the Girl Skateboards/Chocolate Skateboards brands. Lakai's has the title “The Shoes We Skate”. Just recently, Lakai added long time friend Eric Koston to its already powerfull team. Be looking for two new pro model lakai shoes dropping this fall.
